Alex and I discuss the compensation the Steelers received in the trade for Fields and how the Bears effectively had to release him. We talk about how Fields' trade value rotted this offseason.
We take a look at the Steelers' relationship with Fields going back to his draft year and find out what the tape says about him and the fit in Pittsburgh's quarterback room. We also discuss his contract situation and the Steelers' decision on his fifth-year option in the coming weeks.
After talking a lot about Fields, Alex and I talked about the Steelers trading QB Kenny Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles and how there was new coverage about everything related to him. I have given some broader thoughts about this.
